Pennsylvania – Rain showers will persist across western Pennsylvania through Tuesday, with patchy fog expected to develop later in the evening, potentially impacting visibility on major roads like Route 51 and surrounding highways.
According to the National Weather Service, light rain will continue Monday night into Tuesday, intensifying after 1 p.m. and bringing rainfall amounts of up to a quarter of an inch. Motorists are urged to exercise caution as the showers will taper off by the evening, but patchy fog is expected to form around 8 p.m. Tuesday. Visibility may be significantly reduced on Route 51, the PA Turnpike, and other key roadways, creating hazardous driving conditions through Wednesday morning.
Sunny skies are forecast to return by Wednesday afternoon, with temperatures reaching the low 70s, providing some relief from the damp conditions. However, drivers should prepare for another round of patchy fog late Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Daytime temperatures are expected to climb to 77°F on Thursday, with clearer skies through the weekend. As conditions improve, motorists should still remain vigilant during nighttime hours when fog can reduce visibility again.
